Tom's Diner
I am sitting
\r\nIn the morning
\r\nAt the diner
\r\nOn the corner
\r\n
\r\nI am waiting
\r\nAt the counter
\r\nFor the man
\r\nTo pour the coffee
\r\n
\r\nAnd he fills it
\r\nOnly halfway
\r\nAnd before
\r\nI even argue
\r\n
\r\nHe is looking
\r\nOut the window
\r\nAt somebody
\r\nComing in
\r\n
\r\n'it is always
\r\nNice to see you'
\r\nSays the man
\r\nBehind the counter
\r\n
\r\nTo the woman
\r\nWho has come in
\r\nShe is shaking
\r\nHer umbrella
\r\n
\r\nAnd I look
\r\nThe other way
\r\nAs they are kissing
\r\n
\r\nTheir hellos
\r\n
\r\nI'm pretending
\r\nNot to see them
\r\nInstead
\r\nI pour the milk
\r\n
\r\nI open
\r\nUp the paper
\r\nThere's a story
\r\nOf an actor
\r\n
\r\nWho had died
\r\nWhile he was drinking
\r\nIt was no one
\r\nI had heard of
\r\n
\r\nAnd I'm turning
\r\nTo the horoscope
\r\nAnd looking
\r\nFor the funnies
\r\n
\r\nWhen I'm feeling
\r\nSomeone watching me
\r\nAnd so
\r\nI raise my head
\r\n
\r\nThere's a woman
\r\nOn the outside
\r\nLooking inside
\r\nDoes she see me?
\r\n
\r\nNo she does not
\r\nReally see me
\r\nCause she sees
\r\nHer own reflection
\r\n
\r\nAnd I'm trying
\r\nNot to notice
\r\nThat she's hitching
\r\nUp her skirt
\r\n
\r\nAnd while she's
\r\nStraightening her stockings
\r\nHer hair
\r\nIs getting wet
\r\n
\r\nOh, this rain
\r\nIt will continue
\r\nThrough the morning
\r\nAs I'm listening
\r\n
\r\nTo the bells
\r\nOf the cathedral
\r\nI am thinking
\r\nOf your voice...
\r\n
\r\nAnd of the midnight picnic
\r\nOnce upon a time
\r\nBefore the rain began...
\r\n
\r\nI finish up my coffee
\r\nIt's time to catch the train
